The Welfare Officer's role is to work closely with the Management Team, on peak shifts, ensuring all guests and team are safe. This includes ensuring any vulnerable guests are looked after and supported, any intoxicated guests are safely escorted from the venue, identifying and reporting drug use, supporting the team with refusal of service, ensuring there is water for guests to drink and reporting on all Safety Security and Licensing activities. Welfare Officers are a licensed condition and must be on duty Thursday, Friday and Saturday from the latest of 19:00 until guest dispersal.
